Kjell's Birthday

My postings have been slowing down but today is a day I wanted to make sure was remembered in our house. Kjell turned 29 today and while I think having a birthday the day before Halloween would not be fun Kjell had a pretty enjoyable day. He went to work but left there about midday and went to lunch with his friends, who treated him, and then to play golf for the rest of the afternoon, also on his friends and coworkers (ah the life of an insurance agent). I did have to interject when he told me he was going that he didn't take the afternoon off on my birthday, I didn't get any time away from my job that day but this is about Kjell. Then this evening we cooked a nice dinner and had cake and ice cream.
Kjell already received his gift this year a few weeks ago he went to a World Series Playoff game at Dodger Stadium. And although they lost that night and then lost that series he said it was still a great gift. I don't think I give Kjell enough credit for all he does for me and our family. I love that for the most part I feel like we are a team. He is such a good dad that Chaz cries everyday when he sees Kjell leave for work and both kids are by his side the second he walks in the door. He is patient with me and I hope he knows I love and appreciate him. I hope you had a wonderful birthday Kjell and that your wish comes true.

The Big Fresno Fair


I have been working on this post for a while now. I started and then lost my memory card so I wasn't able to finish. I finally found it so here is what we have been up to.

Some friends and I went to the Fresno Fair a few Fridays ago. Then I went with my family for FHE the following Monday. My mom missed out being in Italy and all, I think she'll get over it.
